And he gets to travel....
|

At a very pretentious party that I had taken a friend to. Were money job and status meant everything (which my friend was very aware of). I introduced a Donna Karen clad female aquaintance to a rather good looking male friend of mine.
Me "Hello Jacquie, How are you? This is my friend Jonathan".
Jacqui: "Hello Jonathan, nice to meet you. And what do you do"?
Jonathan: "I'm a seal culler"
Jacqui: (In disgust) "REALLY"?
Jonathan: "Well someones got to do it and the pays good"
The look on her face was just priceless...........
